The Fate Of the Hartford.

The Fate OF the Hartford.
SHALL THE FAMOUS OLD BATTLE-sHIP BE REPAIRED
OR TURNED INTO JUNK.
1t is still undetermined whether the famous old
battle-sh1p Hartford will be repaired and contin-
ued in the Navy, either as cruising vessel or
receiving ship, or sold ut auction and broken up
When it was estimated that her repairs would
cost s9S 900 1t was intended to ret her for active
service, but subsequent estimate fixed the cost
at $174, 600, causing reconsideration of the mat
ter. Secretary Whitney has procured an opinion
that repairs cannot be continued without further
legislative authority. Secretary Whitney has
therefore, decided that, as the second estimate OF
cost Of new ship Of like character, "there is
doubt as to the authority OF the Secretary to make
called upon to act in the matter, that whatever
repairs would be necessary in the event that she
should be either converted into receiving ship or
continued as cruising ship may be done"

Ihe crawford Case
THE ARGUMENTS BEGCN BY CoUNsEI-THE LAW AND
THE EVIDENCE REVIEWED.
Arguments were heard yesterday afternoon in
the Police Court in the case OF Passed Assistant
Surgeon Millard C. Crawford, U. S. N, charged
with fornicatiOn with Eva White. The assistant
district attorney, Mr.. A. A. Lipscomb, made the
opening argument. He said that while the district
attorneys Office is neither responsible for the law
nor the existence OF this case still II the reverse
was the case he thought that 1t hardly neceS-
sary to apologize for a law for the protection Of
school children. BE then argued that 1t was not
necessary to prove the direct act, and quoted
authorities to sustain this position. He MAIN
tanned that it was sufiicient to show by circum-
Stant1al evidence that the act was committed. He
said that II the defendants Interpretation and
panatfon OF the letter were correct, then he must
be acquitted. II, on the other hand, the govern
ments theory that the reference to the 'tkid" was
confession Of past cohabitation and the letter an
Invitation to future cohabitation, then he must be
convicted. The proposition OF the Government
was that their theory was in accordance with the
testimony and With the instincts OF human nature,
and that the defendants theory was in opposition
to the instincts OF human nature and depended for
Its support solely upon the evidence OF the defend
ant himself which was full OF glaring misstate-
ments as to strengthen the proposition OF the Gov
ernment.
When asked by Mr.. Smith If he regarded the let
ter as confession on the part OF the accused Mr.
LipscomD said that he held 1t to be an admission
of K5eS gpi,f; Mr. 1,nscomn had concluded Mr. sm,t,
OF the defendants counsel said that no one had
/
circumstantial evidence. But one single circum-
stance had been adduced, he said, to show an un-
lawful relation between DR.. Crawford and Eva
White. He charged the prosecution with getting
Eva White out OF reach OF subpoena for fear that
her testimony would prove the defendants inno-
cence.
At quarter past O'Clock Mr. Smith suspended
his argument and said that when he resumed to-
day he would take up the letter. He claimed that
| the letter was neither an admission nor confess
Sion. It might be termed an tndiscretion, but
that ought not to blast mans character and
ruin the reputation OF an innocent girl.
